   It is available for freq'ing, and I am trying to send it directly as I 
type, but the Immortal Coil is busy at the mo ment. But it'll get there one 
way or the other.

  Greetings, Josh; It is interesting to hear that some people in N. America 
 have recently been doing workings with Tolkien "characters". Can you tell 
 me (roughly) where these workings have been done -- e.g. California, 
 Oregon, East Coast? -- or which characters have been invoked, other than 
 Bombadil?
 It is my understanding that first contact was made in England in the
 mid-80s, by a working magical group, with certain Elven figures, Mithrandir, 
 and a few other types, and this led in subsequent years to "higher" 
 Silmarillion contacts with the Valar. As you can imagine, the initial event 
 raised more than a few eye-brows, but in Britain there are 2 or 3 groups 
 derived from the original one still working with materials that have arisen. 
 (For all I know there may be many more who have picked up on Tolkien 
 separately).
 Mithrandir (Gandalf), of course, comes across very much in the mold of
 a Merlin or Dee -- Wise Old Druid -- although with more depth, and Galadriel
 very much a nature goddess, but the Valar seem uniquely sublime & potent.
 The consensus is that Tolkien seems to have tuned into an ancient and
 forgotten, but distinct and still viable pantheon. 
  JN> I really don't see that the power associated with a god-form -- or any
 JN> other symbol, for that matter -- has much at all to do with the amount
 JN> of worship it has had. 
 Perhaps not so much the "amount" as the "quality"?

Greetings, everybody!  I'm looking for the complete version of the 
"Witches' Rune", the one that has a line something like,  "Darksome 
night and shining moon..."  Anybody got it???
I'll trade a good chant or something!
Thanks!

Dear moderator,
I'm upgrading my files areas, and I was wondering if you'd like
to post
a list of echo rules and/or suggestions for the benefit of my
users,
please.
